QUESTION 1. A neurotransmitter receptor is
A)a protein embedded in the membrane
B) found only in the soma
C)activated similarly for all neurotransmitters
QUESTION 2. Compared to metabotropic effects, ionotropic effects are:
A) slower in onset, and briefer
B) faster in onset, and briefer
C) faster in onset, and more long lasting
Homework Answers
Answer
1. The correct answer is - A
A neurotransmitter receptor is a protein embedded in the plasma membrane of postsynaptic cells whereas sometimes they are also in the presynaptic terminal. The neurotransmitter receptor is also known as a neuroreceptor. It is activated by the neurotransmitter.
2. The correct answer is - B
Compared to the metabotropic effects, ionotropic effects are faster and briefer. Whereas, on the other hand, Metabotropic effect has a slower onset and long-lasting effects.

The Acetylcholine receptor is embedded in the cell membrane of the dendrite. Neurotransmitters like dopamine and serotonin are proteins that need to be secreted. Which means both AchR and neurotransmitters are processed through the endomembrane system by being inserted into the ER during translation. DONT describe signal hypothesis ! Explain differences in the process of insertion in the ER that is found between the AchR and a Neurotransmitter. INCLUDE specific amino acid sequences that differ between the two protein types...

If you only need to have a small amount of a ligand available to have it bind to a receptor and activate it, we would say that ligand has a _________ for that receptor. For example, when glucocorticoid levels are low, they bind to mineralocorticoid receptors (MR) first because they have a ___________ for glucocorticoids, whereas it takes a higher concentration of glucocorticoids to have them bind to glucocorticoid receptors (GR). GRs are g-protein coupled receptors, and we know that...

INFORMATION ABOUT IMAGE G FOR QUESTIONS 12-15:
GABAB receptors (GABABRs) are
G-protein-coupled receptors that can be found on both pre- and
postsynaptic neurons. When they are activated by GABA, they can
have a range of effects. For the synapse you are studying in the
following questions, the effects of GABABRs are
indicated in IMAGE G.
You are doing a series of experiments in which you are recording
from the pre- and postsynaptic cell at a synapse. The experiments
described below...

How do neurons conduct information? (Please note: this question refers only to events occurring during the time from the receipt of an external signal by a single neuron to the time this information is relayed to the next neuron or muscle. It does not include anything relating to the initial sensory neuron that stimulated the neuron in question, or the subsequent neuron or muscle that this neuron stimulates.) a. What kind of protein “senses” incoming information at the post-synaptic membrane?...

32. Study the signaling pathway illustrated below, which involves two different receptors. Assume that a protein is active only when it is activated, but not inhibited, by its upstream signaling molecules. Activation and inhibition are indicated by normal and blunt arrows, respectively. Assume that the transcription regulator can be activated by either the binding protein or the kinase that are immediately upstream of the transcription factor. Under which of the following conditions will the expression of target:gene "X" be induced?...

Question 1 (1 point) Vasoconstriction occurs when epinephrine (adrenaline) binds to the a-adrenergic receptor on vascular smooth muscle cells. One way to treat high blood pressure is to administer competitive inhibitors that bind to this receptor. The Kd for binding of epinephrine to this receptor is ~UM. Based on the measured affinity (Kd) of the following drugs for the a-adrenergic receptor, which might be good candidates for high blood pressure medication? Drug A: Kd = 0.6 M; Drug B: Kd...
